Most reddit blockers just hide UI elements, toggle off, toggle back on in two seconds when you actually want to scroll. Reddit Ration doesn't work that way. It assumes you'll try to defeat your own settings and puts friction in front of that: batch-gated feeds, escalating timers, daily limits with cooldowns, and a settings menu that's gated too.
It also replaces infinite scroll with click/arrow-key batches. The scrolling motion itself is part of the addictive loop, not just the content, so breaking the gesture matters as much as filtering what's underneath it.
Features: - Configurable batch size and pause timer - Forces to click buttons or use the arrows keys instead of mindlessly scroll - Escalating timer that grows with each batch (optional) - Daily batch limits with optional cooldown lockout - Allowed browsing hours - Usage stats with 7-day history - Friction gate to prevent weakening your own settings
